The Ottawa Senators have signed veteran forward Claude Giroux to a one-year contract extension, the team announced Sunday. The deal comes with a base salary of $2 million but could rise to $4.75 million based on performance bonuses.

"Claude brings veteran leadership and a competitive edge to our group and has been a consistent presence on and off the ice," said Steve Staios, the Sens' general manager and president of hockey operations, in a statement. "We are excited to bring him back next season." Giroux has tallied 1,116 points over the course of 18 NHL seasons.
